Broadband spatial self-phase modulation of black phosphorous.

Spatial self-phase modulation (SSPM) experiments on two-dimensional (2D) black phosphorus (BP) nanoflake suspensions are performed with focused femtosecond pulsed lasers at 350-1160 nm. In the broadband region, the slope of the SSPM ring number versus laser intensity varies from 0.99 to 0.

Dynamic self-diffraction in MoS(2) nanoflake solutions.

We observe dynamic self-diffraction in MoS(2) supernatant solutions with laser for the first time, and conduct dynamic data simulation and analysis. Observation results indicate that self-diffraction can be divided in three stages: in the first stage, laser changes from Gauss beam to symmetric diffraction rings because of the force from laser. In the second stage, diffraction rings become asymmetric vertically because of gravity.
